I received the jackets this week and I’m keeping both.

The cotton-linen check is more subdued in person compared to the product shots on the website. It’s interesting without being too loud.

The navy mock leno is a lighter (and more vibrant, IMO) shade of navy and quite breathable. It fits noticeably larger compared to the other jacket (and other Natalino sport coats I own) but not too large for it to be a deal breaker.

It seems that the gorge has been lowered more in the latest iteration.

Here’s the navy compared to last year’s tropical wool.

Does anyone know how often Nataliano restocks?
In the past, never. A season's drop was all the stock we were getting.

However, as per their Instagram today they are restocking some of the S/S collection. They haven't announced what or when, but I'd assume pieces like the overshirts, mockleno sportcoat, charcoal suit, etc that sold out almost instantly.

No restocks based on my experience, but Nathan told me earlier this week that some of the single breasteds will be restocked next month.
Thanks for the reply. I was thinking that I would want to buy a suit in the near future and Nataliano seems like a good option. Will have to keep the release dates in mind then

Are you based in London? If so, visit their shop around Oxford Circus. At that price range, I think that it beats all of its competitors based in the U.K.
What I do like about the brand is that Nathan and his team are always keen to improve their products and will change mills if it is best for the regarded item.

I'm based in Germany. But they do ship to the EU for free and that is good to hear. I was looking at Nataliano and BERG&BERG (on sale) atm but this is more for the near future at the moment

Those looks great. Are you able to comment on how they fit relative to Spier contemporary or Suitsupply Havana? I'm a 40L in both of those, and Natalino's sizing seems a touch looser but other people have described otherwise. Thanks.

I have sport coats in all three styles (S&M Contemporary 36R, SS Havana 36R, Natalino 46) and agree with this assessment. Out of the three, I find Natalino to be the roomiest, then S&M, then SuitSupply.

Their S/S 24 features a db jacket which I have not seen on their website. Did anyone get one?

Cross-post from the Spier & Mackay thread:

Managed to pick up this seasons navy Mock Leno sportcoats from both S&M and Natalino. First time ordering from Natalino so was exited to see how they compare. Both sportcoats are nicely finished and stylistically they are somewhat similar. The Natalino sportcoat has slightly wider lapels, and a slightly higher gorge height. Both have 3 roll 2 lapels & spalla camicia shoulders. I would say the shoulder appears to "puff out" more on the Natalino, making the shoulder more pronounced. Arm holes are also higher on the Natalino. Fabric appears to be the same on both jackets. The Natalino sportcoat is half lined, whereas the S&M sportcoat is quarter lined, which to me is preferable for a summer jacket. I ordered the same size from both (contemporary 40L from S&M and a 50L from Natalino). The Natalino is significantly roomier all around, whereas the S&M feels a little trim on me. Overall I think I have a slightly preference for the Natalino based on the fit/proportions, however I do unfortunately seem to have a slight roll just behind the collar on the Natalino jacket, so perhaps the S&M is better suited for my posture. Pictures below:

As a 40L I really appreciate this comparison, but hate you for contributing to these being out of stock.

I like the Natalino silhouette better with the wider shoulders creating a more V shape, longer more closed quarters, and sleeve pitch looks right for you, but SM looks great too.

I have been debating between the SM and Natalino navy linen suits so this is helpful.

Hello gents, does anyone have some experience with natalino’s denim. How is the fit and is the denim rigid. Looks like a great option to wear with tailoring.
